I've been rearranging letters for recreation and recompense since I was 10. there hasn't been any money yet, but I'm keeping the faith.

i used to be a die hard fan . and now..

I've done so much with myself with no hockey this year. I'm involved in so much. Twelve hours of my life every week were dedicated to hockey and now I can do so much more with that time. It's crazy when I think about it. I'm running a department in a conference, a multicultiral show, and helping out with a fashion show. I am definitely enjoying the time, and I think that if a strike was gonna happen, i'm happy it happened in my last year. Worst comes to worst, my resume will look much better after this year.

but, the question is, do i miss hockey? I guess i do. Not as much as I thought i was going to, but i do miss it. Mostly though, I am just mad about it. I think the players are being unreasonable and in my eyes, it is not helping their case one bit that many of them have gone to europe and taken over jobs from other guys. That is what kills me the most.

I fear that I am no longer a sports fan tho. I don't like NBA anymore, NFL isn't holding my attention, five years of MAC hopes to win the Vanier were dashed this year, and hockey is out. I've found other things to fill my time. I don't know if i'll ever watch the leafs with such religiosity.. that sounds so sad, so strange to say. But I fear that the nhl might have lost a fan in me.... or atleast, a fan who might miss a few games cuz he thinks there is something better he can do. There's a though that would have never occured to me last year.
